I know that you all have been waiting for this.  A puzzle puzzle.  My time 16:12.  Classic cut.

19:48 and now I HAVE to get to the store and hope they have some Halloween candy left and some groceries.  Nifty idea having puzzle pieces as the puzzle, good challenge.  :D

Fractal Swirls

96-piece triangles    20:56  (Hint -- start in the middle and work your way out, when you get to the harder pieces you have a lot less left  8) )

Sorry about the triangles, blame them on JP, he's gotten me hooked  ;)

I have trouble with color discrimination and the dark pieces on the outside blew me. Great puzzle challenge.   26:49

That fastest 8:16 and average 18:40 blows my mind.

I have trouble with dark stuff too, I've been trying to find some with lighter colors, but the design on that one got to me.  Sorry  :)
